Chess on a really big board

4. k8

g9

What piece do we have in our game on f1 and f8?

I believe it is the nightrider. The nightrider can move any number of knight moves in one direction.

Bet then it should reflect as reversed Knight?

yeah

It's white to move

It would be a chaotic mess to seee..

I currently have a game with @evert823. I can sign you up for the next game.

5. Nrc4#

Since I believe the nightrider can move any number of knight moves in a direction, it can check you on c4 and you have no way to respond.

Well I am surprised and off my Guard, however, the Nightrider is blocked by my Pawn on f10. It leaps over intermediate squares but not intermediate squares that it 'visits' so to speak.

"Intervening landing squares must be vacant."

If you don't insist on doing another move, my move will be g12

My bad. Didn't really understand well how the nightrider piece works.

I will keep my move 5. Nrc4, but since it is blocked by your pawn on f10 it is not checkmate.

Also 5. g12 is an illegal move because you already moved your pawn to g9
